Text in the screenshot from Grammarly says:

We develop data sets to train our algorithms so that we can improve the services we provide to customers like you. We have devoted significant time and resources to developing methods to ensure that these data sets are anonymized and de-identified.

To develop these data sets, we sample snippets of text at random, disassociate them from a user's account, and then use a variety of different methods to strip the text of identifying information (such as identifiers, contact details, addresses, etc.). Only then do we use the snippets to train our algorithms-and the original text is deleted. In other words, we don't store any text in a manner that can be associated with your account or used to identify you or anyone else.

We currently offer a feature that permits customers to opt out of this use for Grammarly Business teams of 500 users or more. Please let me know if you might be interested in a license of this size, and I'II forward your request to the corresponding team.

Why is it necessary to post this to so many different cimmunities?

[–] keegomatic@kbin.social 33 points 1 year ago (1 children)

I see this complaint a lot but honestly I don’t quite understand what the big deal is. Not everyone is subscribed to the same communities. Personally, I’d love a feature on kbin/lemmy that rolled up duplicate posts on the client, but it’s really not that annoying for me to see a couple dupes in my feed if they’re posted in relevant communities /shrug

Case in point, this post is the only one I’ve seen of this, so I must not be following any of the other communities/magazines the OP posted to.

Maybe it's relevant to those community i guess, so they posted it there. I didn't see such complaint in reddit where multiple sub posted the same stuff over a few days(eg: games, gaming, pcgaming, pcmr, so on and so forth, can share the same exact news and it will appear in your feed multiple times), so not sure why it suddenly a problem in Lemmy.
